Thank you to all of you who signed your names and left comments regarding the auto bailout. With strong Democratic majorities in both houses of Congress and Barack Obama's presidency on the horizon, it is more important than ever that we speak out against an overreaching government.

As many of you know, the auto bailout failed in the Senate, sparing the taxpayers from supporting bad business. In the end, Chapter 11 bankruptcy should allow these firms to emerge stronger and more nimble while keeping most of the jobs.

Last night the Democrats collected enough votes in the House pass legislation that bails out our nation's top three car companies, and that's a shame. A handout from the American taxpayer will only waste money and postpone the difficult decisions the "Big Three" must make. The best option for these companies right now is bankruptcy so that they can reorganize and emerge stronger, healthier businesses.

Suzanne and I would like to wish you a happy Thanksgiving. We hope you find time to spend the holiday with family and enjoy one of my favorite American traditions.

I recently returned home from Washington, D.C., and this Thanksgiving I am thankful for more than being at home with my family.

I am thankful that, even during these challenging times, we still live in the greatest country on earth.

Please join me on this day of thanks in praying for our country and thanking the brave men and women in the military who protect our freedoms.
